1) If there is confusion between alleged paranormal events and actual observable events . . . how does this occur with such frequency??

2) Why do people form their conclusions about their observations in ways unacceptable to science?

3) Why is there so much fear and confusion associated with such observations ?

4) If the observations are mental tricks or fantasy what is the reason for their existence?

5) What is the proper way to investigate the existence of such phenomena?

I studied primitive religions (religion in general) and ethnology (cultural anthropology), sociology, industrial psychology along with classical scientific methods (hard science) . . . I have never resolved the above questions . . . primarily because of the lack of predictability and reproducibility of the observable evidence . . . conclusion . . . the events are fantasy (if so why?) or they are by their nature totally random . . .
